1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundTo support hemodynamic management in vasoplegic shock, we previously developed a closed-loop automated infusion system of norepinephrine (NE) and fluid to automatically restore arterial pressure (AP) and cardiac output (CO). To enhance the practical feasibility and efficacy of the system, we integrated a minimally invasive CO monitor and a closed-loop control of vasopressin (AVP) infusion to the system and validated the integrated system in dogs with endotoxin-induced shock.

methodsBased on the circulatory equilibrium framework, the system directly controls systemic vascular resistance and stressed blood volume by titrating NE and Ringer's acetate solution (RiA), respectively, thereby restoring AP and CO. AVP is automatically initiated once infusion rate of NE is increased higher than 1 μg·kg⁻

resultsThe lipopolysaccharide infusion significantly reduced AP from 82 (80-85) to 52 (50-56) mmHg and CO

conclusionsThis proof-of-concept study validates the feasibility and physiological performance of the system for the hemodynamic management of vasoplegic shock.
